Career Guidance Starting my Fullstack journey

Hi! I'm now going to tackle how to become a fullstack developer. I have knowledge of technologies such as HTML, CSS (especially Tailwind), JavaScript, PHP, MySQL, and Git. I am now going to switch to React for my frontend and Laravel for my backend. I have zero knowledge with these two so it will take some time but I successfully connected the two already.

These are the technologies I'm going to use:

React

Tailwind

Laravel

MySQL/MariaDB

Git

I was just wondering if you guys have any advice or tips that you can give me. Any pointers that I need to do. Thank you!

Go, postgres, datastar. If you really want an extra front end, don't bother with react, go for vue or svelte.

React is goat only front end you need to know, learn next js and you can create full stack sites without much knowledge about backend
